Are you an experienced administrator, with a positive, can-do attitude, with a passion for using your skills to help improve the lives of older people?

Charity People are delighted to be partnering with a charity focused on promoting the rights of older people in care, to recruit an Operations Coordinator to join their small team based in central London.

The charity wants people to know their rights and how to use them. They offer information, advice and support to empower people using care services, and their relatives and friends. As a community of families and experts, they fight for better lives for people in care. They challenge poor care, highlight good practice and demand a better care system.

The Operations Coordinator will be at the heart of the charity's work, supporting their small team to deliver their ambitious aims. You will manage the office to ensure smooth running of processes and help improve efficiency, and provide administrative support across services, campaigns, research and policy work, helping the charity to raise their profile.

Key responsibilities

• Office coordination: Lead the day-to-day office management by developing office policies and procedures, streamlining our systems, acting as first point of contact
• Administration: Provide administrative support across our operations, including finance and fundraising, managing relationships with members and donors
• Governance support: Provide logistical and administrative support to our Governance structures
• Events: Organise Care Rights UK events
• Monitoring: Oversee the capture and tracking of relevant key performance indicators

The successful candidate will have previous experience working as an Office Coordinator or Administrator with strong organisational skills, excellent communication, and the ability to manage multiple priorities under pressure. You'll be confident working both independently and as part of a small team, with a proactive, problem-solving mindset.

You'll have solid IT skills, including Microsoft Office and CRM systems, and a commitment to good data management. You will be comfortable working with local policies around confidentiality, safeguarding, and health and safety.

A commitment to the charity's vision and values is a must. Experience or interest in adult social care and working with older people is desirable, as is knowledge of Beacon CRM, Zoom, and Mailchimp.

This is a part time role, in a small charity, within a fast-paced environment. You will be working as part of a friendly, dedicated staff team and alongside colleagues who are experts in their field. There will be opportunities for co-learning and sharing knowledge and skills. You will have full right to work in the UK and the role is subject to satisfactory references and a DBS check.

The office is currently located near Angel. The charity will be moving later in 2025, and it is very likely that the office will still be in North/East London.

This is an exciting period of change for the charity, as they invest in growing their services and seek to diversify and increase our reach across the UK. If you are excited by the role, and have the relevant skills and experience to apply, we would love to hear from you.

Citizens UK 

Citizens UK is the UK’s biggest, most diverse and most effective people-powered alliance. We bring communities and local organisations together to work on issues that matter; from campaigning for zebra crossings on dangerous roads, to reforming the immigration system, to the Living Wage campaign. We have a track record of winning change through hundreds of local and national campaigns. We know everyday people have the ability to shape the world around them. We believe that through developing local leaders, we can drive nationwide change and create community-led solutions to big and small problems.

South London Citizens 

South London Citizens (SLC) is Citizen’s UK second oldest chapter, established in 2004. SLC has over 100 member institutions spread across seven south London boroughs, working together for the common good.

South London Citizens has developed 1000s of local leaders through training and action teams and won big national campaigns, for example delivering free school meals for children whose parents have no recourse to public funds.

The Living Wage campaign is part of SLC’s DNA and in the last 12 months a campaign to bring the Living Wage Campaign to the Southbank has delivered well over 1000 pay rises to south London workers. The Real Living Wage is currently £13.85 in London, compared with the National Minium Wage of £12.21 (for workers aged over 21).

Community Organising

Through our theory of social change, called community organising, we train thousands of everyday people to lead change in their communities, equipping them with the skills to hold politicians and other powerholders to account. We are made up of 500+ member organisations in powerful alliances throughout the UK. Our members include schools, universities, faith groups, parents’ groups, health practices, charities, trade unions and other civil society organisations.

This role is particularly to organise around the issue of low pay and precarious work and participate in Citizens UK’s flagship campaign, the Living Wage Campaign. We need someone who can speak Spanish as well as English, as south London’s Latin American communities are leading the work in South London. There is scope to involve leaders in campaigns around housing, health and migrants' rights, as we recognise that people affected by low pay are very often determined to take action on wider issues beyond work.     The purpose of the role is to develop leadership, especially grassroots leadership, workers from London’s lowest paid sectors, that can power the campaign. Crucially the Associate Organiser will work with colleagues in South London Citizens to build and execute a strategy that develops powerful leaders for South London Citizens and wins the Living Wage, Living Hours and other material gains for thousands of workers across the capital.
